Sir, – I suspect that Frank McNally, with his temporary literary paralysis (An Irishman’s Diary, June 8th), has the most pristine house in Dublin. Like me, when faced with study or deadlines, he probably reverts to cleaning his immediate vicinity. I also have reason to believe that his 40 push-ups in search of inspiration make him the fittest Irish Times columnist! – Yours, etc,
ENDA CULLEN,
Armagh.
Sir, – Frank should increase the blood flow to his brain not his biceps.
